TNMU160512R-G27 WKP35G triangular milling indexable insert — Tiger·tec Gold for steel and cast iron | Walter Tools

The TNMU160512R-G27 WKP35G is a triangular 60° indexable milling insert in Tiger·tec Gold grade, designed for efficient machining of steel (P) and cast iron (K) with a G27 chipbreaker and 0° negative rake.

• Tiger·tec Gold coated for long tool life
• Triangle 60° form for versatile milling
• 0° negative rake for stable cutting
• Suitable for steel and cast iron machining

Durable coating for higher process productivity

The Tiger·tec Gold coating of this grade, WKP35G, is engineered to reduce abrasive wear and maintain a stable cutting edge when machining steels and grey or ductile cast irons. The coated cemented carbide substrate provides enhanced wear resistance and thermal stability, which directly contributes to longer effective tool life and fewer index changes during production. This results in improved uptime and predictable performance for medium- to high-volume milling tasks, supporting efficient cycle times and lower overall tooling costs.

Geometry that stabilises cutting and chip control

The triangular 60° shape and the G27 chipbreaker combine to deliver robust cutting geometry with reliable chip formation. The insert’s 1.2 mm corner radius increases edge strength where intermittent cuts or heavier radial engagement occur, while the 0° (negative) rake supports a steady cutting action under higher radial loads. Tolerance class M and the solid design ensure repeatable seating and indexing on compatible milling cutters, promoting consistent surface finishes and dimensional stability across production batches.

Versatility and application guidance for workshops

Marked for material groups P / K, this insert is suitable for a broad range of steel and cast iron machining operations. The insert’s series and grade selection favour general-purpose and semi-finish milling where a balance of wear resistance and edge stability is required. For specific cutter bodies, seat designs and machining parameters consult the technical data to confirm compatibility. The Walter Tools pedigree ensures consistent manufacturing standards and availability within the Tiger·tec Gold portfolio, supporting process reliability in industrial environments.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The TNMU160512R-G27 WKP35G insert is designed primarily for steel and cast iron machining, matching the P / K material groups.

What does the G27 chipbreaker provide?
The G27 chipbreaker promotes controlled chip formation and evacuation during milling, which helps maintain a stable cutting process with the Tiger·tec Gold grade.

How does the 0° negative rake affect performance?
A 0° (negative) rake increases cutting edge strength under heavier radial loads, improving stability and tool life in tougher milling conditions.

Is the corner radius suitable for finishing operations?
The 1.2 mm corner radius offers a balance between edge robustness and surface quality; it is typically suited to semi-finish and general-purpose milling where edge life is a priority.
